Next month, University of St. Thomas in Houston will host a lecture on vocations to the priesthood and religious life by Fr. Brett A. Brannen, author of To Save a Thousand Souls.  His lecture will be titled “To Set the World on Fire.”

From the UST news release:

St. Catherine of Siena said, “If you are what you should be, you will set the world on fire.” Fr. Brannen is setting the world on fire with his new book, To Save a Thousand Souls. Many young men and women discerning their vocation for the priesthood or for religious life have found Fr. Brannen’s book invaluable. 

From his years of experience as a seminarian, priest, vocation director and seminary vice-rector, Fr. Brannen shares his rare insight into vocational discernment, seminary life and the priesthood in our modern world. This lecture is a gift to someone faced with the difficult issue of discerning their vocation. 

Thanks to the generosity of the Serra Club of Houston a number of copies of To Save a Thousand Souls will be available on a first- come, first -served basis to lecture participants.
